Chapter 421: The Copper Plate That Was Erected
The name "Princess Izumo" sounds familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, I suddenly remember that Xu Wei once mentioned when introducing the Dahua royal family that the current emperor has three princesses, and the eldest princess is old, married to the south of Caiyun, and has not returned to her hometown for several years. The second princess was named "Izumo", and she didn't know what to do since she was a child, and the little princess was in a beautiful dress, and later she learned that it was Qin Xian'er. Could it be that Seihiru is really the legendary Izumo princess? Aren't she and Xian'er sisters?
Xiao Qingxuan flicked his long sleeves lightly, and said lightly: "Which palace are you the deacon, how do you recognize me?" β
Miss Xiao's words are tantamount to admitting her identity. Gao Ping hurriedly kowtowed excitedly: "You are really Princess Izumo, princess, the old slave is Gao Ping, don't you remember me?!" β
"Gao Ping?" Xiao Qingxuan muttered to himself, frowning slightly, as if remembering when he had heard the name.
Gao Ping kowtowed on the ground like pounding garlic, and his voice trembled with excitement: "The old slave Gao Ping, since the emperor was in the palace, he has been following and serving the master and the queen. In the past, when the princess was full of moon, the old slave followed Manager Wei and hugged the little princess. β
Lin Wanrong was dizzy when she heard this, you old eunuch, my wife saw that you were still in swaddling clothes, and now you are like a fairy, where do you still recognize you?
Hearing that this eunuch was an old man in the palace, Xiao Qingxuan had tears in his eyes, nodded and said: "It turns out that it is the old man next to the father and the queen mother, you should get up and speak." β
Gao Ping kowtowed, stood up respectfully, looked at Xiao Qingxuan carefully, and said excitedly: "The queen mother is kind and virtuous, admired by the world, and she is even more kind to the old slave. The princess and the mother are the same, and the old slave looks at you and knows that you are the emperor's Izumo princess. β
"The queen mother has been dead for many years, and it is difficult for you to remember her old man." Xiao Qingxuan's tears were crystal clear, her heart was full of sentimentality, she sighed lightly, Gao Ping was also emotional, and wiped a few tears with her.
It turns out that Qingxuan is the princess of the queen herself, no wonder she has the queen's waist card, and then think of the appearance of Qingxuan when the two met in Jinling, then I understand why when it comes to Hu people and state affairs, she cares so much, this is her family affair at all. Lin Wanrong suddenly realized, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, with Qingxuan and Xian'er, in this way, I accounted for two of the three princesses of the old emperor's family? It's hard to think about underdevelopment now!
"Sister, are you really a princess?" Qiaoqiao happily grabbed Xiao Qingxuan and asked excitedly.
Luo Ning is from everyone's background, knows etiquette, hurriedly Yingying, and said coquettishly: "Luo Ning, the folk girl, see the princess!" β
Xiao Qingxuan took the hands of the two of them and said with a smile: "They are all sisters, how can they be so polite." Ning'er is about to be more polite. I've been out of the royal family for many years, and I'm an ordinary woman now, so you don't have to be restrained. β
"Yes, yes, don't be inhibited." Lin Wanrong said with a smile: "Everyone is a family, don't say anything outside the world." β
Gao Ping secretly pulled him aside and whispered: "Lord Lin, when the emperor asked me to give you a reward this morning, the slave still felt a little strange, and when I saw Princess Izumo, I understood, I think you also know the emperor's intentions." β
Lin Wanrong nodded. I thought that the old emperor was distressed by his uncle, and he made trouble for a long time, because he felt sorry for her daughter, and he sent gold and silver, and he sent a wet nurse, and he served more thoughtfully than anyone else.
"Your Excellency, you must take good care of Princess Izumo. The old slave said something that shouldn't be said, our three princesses of Dahua, the emperor is the most painful, this is the one who hurts the most, you must not go wrong. β
The princess is a golden branch and jade leaf, according to the rules of Dahua, even if she is married, the horse has to perform the courtesy of the monarch and the minister, and bow down to the princess in the morning and evening. Lin Wanrong scoffed at this, kneeling to his wife every day, is this still a man? Fortunately, my Qingxuan is peaceful and thin, not one of those superficial princesses.
Lin Wanrong nodded and smiled: "Father-in-law Gao, don't worry, my own wife, can I not feel distressed?" You go back and tell the emperor, and you will say that I, Lin San, have thanked him for his grace. In the future, Qingxuan will eat and drink well in our house, have fun and be happy in everything, and ensure that she will not be wronged. β
Gao Ping also knew the temperament of this Lord Lin, these few words were enough, put down the gold and silver things, and carefully told Yahuan to stabilize the mother-in-law, and did not dare to slack off.
Qiaoqiao and Luo Ning never dreamed that the woman who was haunted by the eldest brother turned out to be the most noble princess in Dahua, seeing that she and the princess were sisters, the joy in their hearts was needless to say, the two of them pulled Xiao Qingxuan and asked long and short questions, and the laughter of the three women resounded throughout the mansion.
After talking, Xiao Qingxuan glanced at Lin Wanrong, saw that he had a smile on his face, and didn't know what he was thinking, so he took his hand and said softly: "Lin Lang, do you blame me for hiding my true identity?" β
Looking at Xiao Qing's whirlwind demeanor, I knew that she was either rich or noble, but I didn't expect that she was the old emperor's favorite princess Izumo, and the queen was born in person, and she was even richer than Qin Xian'er. But since Qingxuan is the princess of the emperor and the queen, how could she fall into the hands of "Yude Xianfang", and almost led the cultivation to become a sister-in-law? I knew that I would go directly to the emperor to ask for someone. Lin Wanrong was confused in her heart, and sighed and smiled: "No blame, no blame, everyone has their own reasons for doing things." Since you have concealed your identity, you naturally have a hard time, what do I blame you for? β
Xiao Qingxuan snorted, tears fell lightly, and sighed: "Lang Jun knows me." Most of the things in the world are done as a last resort, although Qingxuan was born in the royal family, his fate is miserable, and he is not as good as the folk woman. She clenched Lin Wanrong's hand and smiled with tears: "Now that I am already a king, Qingxuan no longer dares to hide it." My real surname is Zhao, my maiden name is Qingxuan, and I am the second daughter of the current Dahua Emperor, and I am given the name Izumo. β
Zhao Qingxuan, Xiao Qingxuan, Lin Wanrong clapped his hands tremblingly, and sighed: "Why didn't I think of it earlier, your Xiao character is to obtain half of the Zhao character, a simple word splitting couplet, which has bothered me for a long time." β
Xiao Qingxuan shook his head and smiled: "It's not just that. My mother's name is Xiao Feng'er, and taking this Xiao character as her surname means to commemorate her mother. Moreover, he has walked the rivers and lakes all these years. My name is Xiao Qingxuan, and I'm used to it. β
It turned out that her mother-in-law's surname was Xiao, and Qingxuan was a good filial piety. Whether it is Xiao Qingxuan or Zhao Qingxuan, it is always my eldest wife who will not be wrong. Seeing Qingxuan's pretty face as delicate as a flower, thinking of her charm between the bed and the ground this morning, Lin Wanrong's heart was like a cat scratching, what about the princess. Isn't it the same to make a man hurt? Secretly pinched it in her palm, and he smiled.
Miss Xiao had a heart-to-heart with him, and when she saw him smiling so much, she knew his thoughts, remembered the absurd act this morning, blushed for a while, twisted his hand hard, and lowered her head in shame.
Luo Ning didn't know that the two of them were secretly communicating with each other, and said suspiciously: "Sister, since you are my supreme princess of Dahua, how could you come to the Yude Immortal Fang, what kind of courtyard master are you?" Don't they know who you are? β
Xiao Qingxuan's expression was gloomy, and he shook his head and sighed slightly: "People are in the royal family, and I can't help myself, although I am from a noble background, I am not as free and happy as the woman in the street." From the moment I was born, my fate was sealed. β
Seeing that her expression was gloomy, Luo Ning and Qiaoqiao hurriedly and obediently held her hand, Xiao Qingxuan smiled gratefully, stroked the hair behind her ears, and said calmly: "The two younger sisters have already tied their hair with Lin Lang, and they are not outsiders, my Lin family is united and loving, and it is not allowed to be private." Qingxuan told the truth of the matter, hoping that the two sisters would keep it a secret and not transfer it to others. β
Qiaoqiao and Luo Ning nodded hurriedly, Lin Wanrong had been in contact with the old emperor for a long time, and he knew a little about the secret affairs.
"In the past, my father and King Cheng competed for the throne, and I think the two sisters know a little bit about it." Xiao Qingxuan sighed slightly and said with emotion. She is the princess of the queen's concubine, she has a graceful demeanor in speaking and doing things, and the matter of competing for the throne is taboo in ordinary people, but she said it, sincere and sincere, so that there is no trace of disgust in life, and I don't admire Qiaoqiao and Luo Ninghao.
The matter of the two kings seizing the heir is known to everyone in Dahua, and no one knows about it, Miss Luo and Qiaoqiao are both women who have read poetry and books, so they will naturally not be strangers. Seeing the second daughter nodding, Xiao Qingxuan said softly: "Don't hide it from the two sisters, when the emperor was on the throne in the past, he liked King Cheng even more in his heart." At that time, King Cheng was in charge of the ministry, and his protΓ©gΓ©s were all over the world, and his arrogance was so prosperous that no one could overshadow him, and it was logical to take over the throne. It's just that he is suspicious by nature and has determined his advantages, but he is still not at ease, and he has not stopped speculating about my father, and has sent people to kill each other several times. Before I was born, my father and mother had two princes, but they were both murdered. My mother's grief and emaciation left me in the third year of my birth, when I was less than three years old, and I had never seen my mother. β
Miss Xiao's face was pale, tears flowed down, her two brothers and the queen mother all died because of King Cheng, such a human tragedy, happened to the beautiful Princess Dahua, it is even more sad.
Luo Ning and Qiaoqiao were shocked when they heard it, fratricidal, it was an extremely taboo thing in all dynasties, and this matter came out of the mouth of Princess Izumo, and there would never be a fake. No wonder my sister asked me to keep it a secret. The two of them hurriedly took Xiao Qingxuan's hand and comforted him with wide words.
Although this matter has been known for a long time, but when it comes out of Qingxuan's mouth, it has a stronger appeal, and Lin Wanrong sighed when he heard it. In addition to feeling sorry for Qingxuan, but he admired the emperor's father-in-law more, the loss of his son and wife, the destruction of his family, it was unbearable pain for any person, he actually endured it alive, this kind of ability, Lin Wanrong thought he couldn't do it. If it had been himself, he would have destroyed King Cheng hundreds of times.
After receiving the relief of the second daughter, Xiao Qingxuan's grief was reduced a lot, and he wiped his tears and continued: "My father is forbearant and firm, but he can't bear such pain. King Na Cheng was so aggressive, and his father's strength was weak, so he had no choice but to find another plan, and it happened that the Yude Xianfang, which was extremely prestigious among the people, was selecting the next generation of heirs at this time, indicating that he wanted a noble-born baby girl, and my mother gave birth to me-"
Xiao Qingxuan held Lin Wanrong's hand tightly, and tears dripped down like pearls with broken threads. Lin Wanrong looked distressed, hurriedly hugged her into her arms, wiped away the tears on her face, and said softly: "It's okay, with your husband here, no one can bully you." β
"So, the emperor gave you to Yude Xianfang as a successor? Isn't this hurting my sister for a lifetime, how can he do this? Qiaoqiao is simple and pure, and when she heard about her sister, it was like hurting herself, and in a hurry, she couldn't wipe the tears on her face, and screamed eagerly.
This was a big taboo, Luo Ning was shocked when she heard it, and hurriedly pulled her and said: "Don't talk nonsense, the emperor is my sister's biological father, how can he not love her?" β
"Don't misunderstand the two younger sisters," Xiao Qingxuan shook his head, a hint of determination appeared on his face: "Regarding this matter, Qingxuan has never blamed his father in his heart, on the contrary, Qingxuan is still very grateful to him." β
Grateful to him? This time it was not only Luo Ning and Qiaoqiao, but even Lin Wanrong was strange, you were still in your infancy, and he gave you away as a father, and you are still grateful to him? What is the reasoning of this.
Xiao Qingxuan smiled and said gently: "Lin Lang, if it is between you and my child. I can only choose one, and I will definitely choose you. β
Luo Ning was extremely moved when she heard this, and tears fell down her eyes and said: "Sister, I understand what you mean, the son is the meat that fell from your body, for the sake of the eldest brother, you would rather give up the child, and the affection between you and the eldest brother is better than everything." β
Xiao Qingxuan nodded lightly and sighed slightly: "After becoming a mother." I can understand the state of mind of my father. If you send one person away, you can have absolute power to protect my mother and the well-being of my family, and my father has no way out. There is not a single parent in this world who does not feel sorry for their child. When my father made this choice, he not only had to endure the pain of separation of flesh and blood, but also had to bear a thousand years of infamy, and the pain in his heart was far beyond human understanding. He carried all the infamy on his back, protected my mother, protected my relatives, if he hadn't made up his mind. I don't know what kind of persecution my mother and father will encounter, although this move makes me endure the pain of loneliness, but it also makes me respect filial piety for my parents and family, you say, should I hate him, or should I respect him? β
Several people were dumbfounded when they heard it, Xiao Qingxuan was really the phoenix among people. This kind of reverse thinking is counterintuitive, but every word is on the point. The old emperor is also a human being, and he also has seven emotions and six desires, but he has the determination and means that ordinary people do not have, and he gave Xiao Qingxuan in infancy to Yude Xianfang as a successor, sacrificing her life, which is indeed unfair to Qingxuan, but for other family members, this is fair.
"And how did you find out about your origins?" Luo Ning said with concern: "When everyone in Yude Xianfang learns that you are a princess, do they dare to embarrass you?" β
"It's not as bad as you think. In order to avoid people's eyes, my identity is also a top secret in the Holy Place, and only the master and my master know about it. Xiao Qingxuan smiled: "My father is by no means a ruthless and unrighteous person. When he sent me away, he had an agreement with the Holy Fang. Before I reached the age of 20 and inherited the mantle of the Holy Place, I could go down to the mountain every year to visit my parents and practice filial piety. I would stay in the palace for a month every year to reunite with my parents, and my father had the best gentleman to teach me. If it weren't for this, how could my mother support me until I was three years old, I am afraid that the moment she sent me away, she would have died of pain. It's just that when I was three years old, she abandoned me because of years of heart sickness, which is my lifelong regret. β
Hearing this, Lin Wanrong already understood that the old emperor was delaying the army, and used Qingxuan to stabilize Yude Xianfang, but let her never give up with the royal family, and after twenty years of hard work, she could always come up with a solution. It's no wonder that when it comes to Yude Xianfang, the old emperor's face is so ugly, not to mention that for the sake of Dahua Foundation, even if it is for Qingxuan, he has long planned to eradicate Yude Xianfang. Such forbearance, such means, is really thoughtful, but pitiful.
Qiaoqiao wiped away her tears, and said with a smile: "It's okay now, without Yude Xianfang, my sister is reunited with my eldest brother, and I have a baby, our family will live happily in the future, and no one can break us up." β
Xiao Qingxuan nodded, her pretty face was full of tenderness, she looked at Lin Wanrong and muttered to herself: "Since the day I became sensible, I have known that happiness is insulated from me in this life and this life." Who knows, Jinling and his party made me meet Lin Lang, this is the magic obstacle in my life, which is impenetrable and unbreakable, and I am addicted to it for the rest of my life. Out of the teacher's door, I will be a little woman in this world, not seeking immortals, not seeking Buddha, only willing to grow old with Lin Lang, to be a happy and free pair of mandarin ducks in the world, never to die - dead, not to stop! β
Although these words were made casually by Miss Xiao, they were sincere and touching, Luo Ning and Qiaoqiao were both affectionate and affectionate people, and they could hear tears flashing, and they didn't know that the eldest brother had cultivated the blessings of several lives, and he actually met a fairy-like character like Sister Xiao.
Lin Wanrong was so moved that she wiped the corners of her eyes fiercely, ***, if this continues, Lao Tzu will be completely conquered by Qingxuan, this sign is not good. When a man loses himself, he becomes a nymphomaniac.
"Hahahaha," he hurriedly laughed three times, "don't talk about these unhappy things." Since my emperor and father-in-law miss their daughter so much, Qingxuan, I think you might as well pick a time, go back to the palace to save your relatives, and catch up with your father-in-law. By the way, let's see what other gold and silver treasures are not used in my father-in-law's house, and I can also move them back together, and I can also earn some milk powder money for our baby. Oh, it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, I think it's today, the spring is bright outside, the peach blossoms are in full bloom, and it is a good time to save relatives. β
The three women were in the mood of being moved, and they were greatly discouraged by his unbearable interruption, and Luo Ning and Qingxuan glanced at him together. Qiaoqiao said with a smile: "What kind of stupid words did the eldest brother say, this rain has not stopped since yesterday, where does the spring come from?" β
Xiao Qingxuan shook his head and said: "Although there is no spring outside, I am afraid that his heart is already full of spring." Lin Lang, Mr. Xu Wei knows that you reward you, and treats you well, I will visit his house later, will you go? β
Lin Wanrong was taken aback, and hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Don't go, don't go." Resolutely not going. β
Luo Ning chuckled and glanced at him charmingly: "Big brother, what are you afraid of?" If you go with your sister, can others still eat you? β
"Who's going to eat me, I don't know. But I'm going to eat you little fox. Lin Wanrong patted Ning Er's buttocks, round and tight, full of elasticity, and said viciously in her ear.
Luo Ning sighed, her ears and cheeks were flushed, and she hurriedly hid behind Miss Xiao, her red lips opened slightly, and her eyes instantly gathered endless spring love.
"You're not going. Then I'll go. Xiao Qingxuan smiled slightly: "Go to the Xu family today, and go to the Xiao family tomorrow to meet Miss Xiao, Miss Xiao Er and her wife. β
Don't let go of any of them, seeing that Xiao Qingxuan's expression was not cold, Lin Wanrong was like being stepped on by the tail of a mouse, snorted, and hurriedly escaped.
Luo Ning was angry and funny: "Sister, did he go to Xiao's house to report the news?" If you go tomorrow, you will definitely not see Xiao Yuruo, then Miss Xiao treats her eldest brother, but she is very angry. β
"It's better not to see it." Xiao Qingxuan was as beautiful as a flower, and said with an unhurried smile: "As long as she doesn't come up to my Lin family's door, it doesn't matter if I see her or not." β
Lin Wanrong went out and glanced left and right, only to see that the Xu Wei Mansion on the left side was extremely silent, but the gate was hidden, leaving a slight crack, which seemed to be specially reserved for whom.
This old Xu is really, what are you doing when you move next door to my house, rabbits don't eat the grass next to the nest, aren't you embarrassed Miss Xu? He glanced left and right, and when he saw that no one was paying attention to him, his heart suddenly felt a little itchy, rabbits don't eat the grass next to the nest, and Lao Tzu is not a rabbit. Miss Xu kindly invited me to come over, although there were some ill intentions, but it was not so serious. Wouldn't it be rude if you didn't go? I've always been a very polite person.
He was extremely embarrassed, on the one hand, he thought that he was sorry for Qingxuan, and that a tryst with another woman under her nose was really done by a beast, and on the other hand, it was not easy to think about Miss Xu, and only I reached out to let her say goodbye to the life of cucumber and eggplant.
After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't make up his mind, gritted his teeth, took out a copper plate from his arms, and said with a smile: "A throw will win or lose." If it's positive, I'll walk to Xufu. If it's the opposite, I'll take a sedan chair to Xufu. If the copper plate is erected, damn it, this will work, and Lao Tzu will strip naked and run ten laps on the street. β
Leave your fate to the copper plate, everything is a decision of heaven and has nothing to do with me. Shifting the blame, he was determined, flicked his thumb, and the copper plate clanged and clanged, rolling on the ground a few times, and only slowly stopped after running far away, but it was - stand!
